I took another chip, and its doing the same exact thing, but now it doesnt boot.
I can't program a chip outside of the mobo.
Maybe something on my motherboard is wrong ?

It's a good thing that you made backups...
My both last attached files are working, i have tried the one you made before. it was not working. (stuck on lenovo screen, can't press enter)
Now my pc still boots because i put back original bios before soldering, but i can't program chip anymore, neo programmer / as programmer doesnt detect it on spi nor, but detects as a i2c eprom.
So find another chip from a donor MB ... any of this type, and write the content in that:
Macronix MX25L128
Winbond W25Q128
Micron N25Q128
EON EN25QH128Leave a comment:

If your last attached file(s) are working then write this patched content and follow the steps for autopatcher then write back your original (posted) dump.Attached FilesPremium supporters get full download access and other benefits.

For T480 autopatcher tested and works on so many cases, for T480s yes autopatcher don't work -
For T480 and T480s the patcher tool did not seem to work but I have used the alternative method suggested by MaxPower and shown on YouTube MxP where you short the LPC debug connector during startup- needs patience but worksHello,

The tool is totally safe and accessible for everyone. My goal is to provide a GUI version that is easy to use. If there are any features you would like to see added, please let me know in the comments and I will do my best to implement them, though I can’t make any formal promises. -

Hi Your actual S/N is PF0VPF3N (That's a Zero "0", not the letter "O")Hello, I haven't been able to remove the password from my Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 5th generation 20 HR.
SN PFOVPF3N
EEPROM 25Q128FVSQ
BIOS: NIMET78W (1.63)
BIOS recovery with NeoProgrammer OK
BIOS patch with your Lenovo AutoPatcher 0.2 program OK
Writing the patch to the EEPROM OK.
The computer starts, the power button is lit, but the screen is black and there's a short 7-note beep music.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Anyway, Try this BIOS file. FIRST flash Type_20HR_BIOS_Ver_163+WinKey and WAIT for your machine to boot
Only then proceed with ALL the AUTO-PATCHER steps using the second file Type_20HR_BIOS_Ver_163_PATCHED
And After the password is removed, flash back (Of course) Type_20HR_BIOS_Ver_163+WinKey again, see if it works
Lenovo X1 Carbon 5th Gen - Kabylake (Type 20HR, 20HQ) Laptop (ThinkPad) - Type 20HR
Machine Type Model 20HR0022FR

Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Hi your machine has a 13th Generation Intel® Core™ i5-1345U vPro® NOT AMD
That means you likely have either a MEC1723/24 SIO/KBC chip (password is there)
Anyawy there's no solution for now don't bother. MEC15XX/MEC17XX are NOT supported yet
The day those EC/KBC chips are supported by any programmer, you can post a dump for unlocking
I will wait for a solution future, I hope.
Thank you the community for your help.
Thank you ERRA, thank you Sparo.

Hi your machine has a 13th Generation Intel® Core™ i5-1345U vPro® NOT AMDHi guys,
I need some help, I brought a used laptop for my study but it seems that bios is locked.
I cannot activate the virtualization needed for my homework and work at school.
I tried to patched the bios, but I got: Bios.bin is corrupted or does not contain a valid dump.
I tried as well to get an bios on Lenovo website, but I get a "part of the bios" as it's a FL1 file, which contain an update of the bios.
And I think that the last action is useless as I have this password issue which avoid to access and change some settings in the bios.
X13 Yoga Gen 4
TYPE: 21F3S5JL02
SN: PF4XY7JK
I don't know the password to unlock this bios.
Someone can help me please?
I put the extracted bios in attached file.
Thank you guys.

by macabookHello everyone,
I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
🧩 Initial Issue- Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
- External display (HDMI) shows

by cr4zychrissHello everyone,
I am requesting urgent assistance to unbrick my laptop, a rebranded TongFang GK7MRFR chassis. The laptop is completely dead following a faulty in-OS EC flash attempt.
I have successfully used a CH341A programmer and can read/write/verify both flash chips, but using my backups/extractions has failed to restore power. The root cause is likely a corrupted Intel Management Engine (ME) region or an incompatible EC/BIOS pairing. System & Hardware Details- Barebone / Chassis: TongFang GK7MRFR

by TopPopSorry for the long story. I have a Dell Latitude 5530 (i7) laptop (South Peak 15 MLK MB DDR4 203102-1 FK8VG$JA) with an admin BIOS password that I want to remove. Service Tag: HYKFPT3. Other than that the laptop worked OK.
I found a CH341A Black and went looking for the BIOS chip on the motherboard. After trying to read one chip that was a firmware chip but not the BIOS I think I found the BIOS chip labeled Winbond 25Q256JVEN. Altogether I think I found 4 different firmware chips in the laptop. The BIOS chip is a WSON8 6x8. I used the CH341A, NeoProgrammer, and a cheap pogo pin clip... -
by piratiHello everyone,
I recently bought a non-working Asus Zenbook Pro Duo OLED UX8402ZA that was listed for parts only. The seller mentioned that it had no display output but that the charging lights worked.
When the laptop arrived (without a charger and SSD), I connected a charger and confirmed with a multimeter that it was charging the battery. However, when I tried to power it on, only the backlight of the secondary display came on. There was no image, and it didn’t boot into the BIOS.
I decided to try flashing a new BIOS, but since I didn’t want to desolder...-

Hello everyone,
I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 16IAH7. When the device first arrived, there was no display at all.
I had the BIOS cleaned, but the issue was not resolved and there was still no image.
Later, I flashed a different BIOS dump from the same model. With this BIOS, the device boots and display works, but the GPU is not detected in the BIOS (RTX 3060 is missing).
After that, I tried to update the...-
